TEHRAN (FNA)- Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian stressed
the necessity for a negotiated end to the Iran-West nuclear standoff,
saying that his country stands for a peaceful settlement of Iran's
nuclear issue.
"The Armenian stance on the Iranian problem remains unchanged," Edward
Nalbandian told a briefing, noting that Armenia attaches importance
to friendly relations with Iran.
Earlier, US and EU states commented on the possibility of imposing
an embargo on Iranian oil supplies as another sanction against the
country.
Iran, which sits on the world's second largest reserves of both oil
and gas, has dismissed the US sanctions as inefficient, saying that
it is finding Asian partners instead. A large number of Chinese,
Indian and other Asian firms have negotiated or signed up to oil and
gas deals with Iran.
Iranian officials have also stressed that the International and
unilateral sanctions against Iran have had no result but inflicting
damage on the European companies.
